The Unwashed Masses

Okay, what I thought was a bruised toe turns out to actually be an ingrown toenail. Is that too much information? I don't know; I'm always surprised by some of the incredibly mundane things that other people seem to consider "TMI," as well as by the matters that I'd never mention but on which some others are incredibly frank. Anyway, I guess I'll make a doctor's appointment when I can, but I don't know how soon that will be.

When flipping through channels last night, bethje and I caught the tail end of some show on hippies. You know, I agree with the hippies on a fair number of things (like that peace is a cool idea and the environment is important), but the footage they show on TV always makes them look so dirty. I mean, I'm not exactly Mr. Neatness myself, but I doubt I'd be able to attend one of their love-ins or music festivals without having a Marc Summers sort of fear. It doesn't help that the film they used on this show looked pretty gritty in and of itself.

And finally, here's the result of a quiz that I learned about from bec_87rb:

Your Score: Feminine

You scored 16 masculinity and 50 femininity!

You scored high on femininity and low on masculinity. You have a traditionally feminine personality.

Pretty crazy, huh? Of course, that's based on how I see myself, rather than how other people see me.

Yeah, I think people tend to use "TMI" when it's a case of something they think others would rather not know, not just when it isn't important. Because, really, if it were a case of only relaying important information, most of our journals would probably only have a few posts per year.
